>>and will not consider the nasdaq bear market as a factor in his decisions. <<

vic, the interest rate hikes are over for now. alan.com is all about manipulating markets through action, not words. he pumps in liquidity and increases m3 like there is no tomorrow and a 3 yr old know that is what has been fueling the market. y2k money pumped up the naz to 5k and alan.com refused to take it out of the system after he pumped it in (he said he would, but changed his mind. apparently he didn't want to disrupt the markets).

remember the interest rate cut 15 minutes before options expiration that caused the market to surge 5% in 5 minutes?

that was no accident.

alan.com wants to create the biggest bubble in history and take no responsibility when it inevitably bursts.

>>I'm not sure the Fed cares all that much about the formerly exuberant investors.

I agree that AG has not yet needed to be unduly concerned about irrational investor pessimism, and still doesn't. But the helmsman is alert to the telltale of the stockmarket. He need not hike out on every puff of wind, but he knows that a squall can capsize the boat if he is not careful. He is vigilant to shifts in direction and force of the wind and the need to respond appropriately to keep the US Economy on course.

We don't yet know whether this is a puff, a squall, or the beginning of a violent thunderstorm. Regardless, you don't hike out on the leeward side of the boat, unless you don't mind having a drink.
